Gravel delivery in Wimberley, TX

A typical tri-axle dump truck holds roughly 10-14 tons (about 8-12 cubic yards) of gravel. Delivered prices to Wimberley commonly range by material and distance; expect a broad ballpark of about $400 to $1,200 for a full truckload, but specialty stones can cost more. Final cost depends on the gravel type, supplier, and access; request a site-specific quote from Hello Gravel for an exact delivered price.

For Wimberley’s hill-country conditions, 3/4u0022 crushed limestone or crushed granite are popular for driveways because they lock together and compact well. Decomposed granite and pea gravel are common for pathways and patios, while larger 1-2u0022 rock or riprap is used for erosion control and drainage. Local suppliers often offer regionally sourced materials, so color and texture can vary.

Dark or u0022Texas blacku0022 decorative gravels are sometimes available near Wimberley but can be limited and typically cost more than common limestone or granite. Dark stones look striking in landscaping but absorb more heat, may show dust, and can fade over time in sun. If cost or availability is an issue, ask Hello Gravel about similar dark basalt or locally sourced dark aggregates as alternatives.

Use this quick estimate: for a 1-car driveway (about 10' x 20') at 3u0022 compacted depth you need ~1.9 cubic yards (about 2.5 to 3 tons); at 4u0022 depth plan ~2.5 cubic yards (about 3.0 to 4.0 tons). For a 2-car driveway (about 20' x 20') at 3u0022 expect ~3.7 cubic yards (about 5 to 6 tons) and at 4u0022 expect ~5.0 cubic yards (about 6.5 to 8 tons). These are typical ranges—use the Hello Gravel material calculator or contact our team for a precise estimate based on your exact dimensions and chosen product.

Permit and HOA rules vary. If your project changes driveway access, affects city drainage, or alters a public right-of-way you may need a permit from the City of Wimberley or Hays County; HOA covenants often require prior approval for visible changes. Check with your city or county building department and your HOA, and reach out to Hello Gravel if you need help understanding what details to provide for approvals.

Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order nationwide. Standard delivery lead time is typically 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Delivery fees depend on supplier distance, material, and site access; many Wimberley-area orders qualify for free delivery but confirm exact fees during checkout or by requesting a quote.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this service is not guaranteed and depends on site conditions and safety. Compaction is generally not provided by delivery drivers; we recommend renting a plate compactor or hiring a local contractor for compaction and finish grading. If you want spreading or compaction options, note it in Order Notes or call our team for recommendations and local labor estimates.

Because Wimberley sees occasional heavy rains and sloped terrain, angular crushed stone (3/4u0022 crushed limestone or crushed granite) performs well for driveways and roads due to better interlock and reduced migration. For erosion control on steeper slopes use larger rock (1-2u0022 or riprap) and for dry paths consider decomposed granite with a stabilizer. Proper base preparation and drainage are as important as material choice; plan for edge restraints and surface water diversion.

Volume pricing is often available for large orders and commercial projects; Hello Gravel can request bulk pricing from local suppliers for orders over 50 tons. Financing options depend on payment methods and any third-party financing partners; contact our sales team for a custom quote and to discuss payment terms or potential discounts for big jobs.

Access and weight restrictions depend on exact delivery location—narrow lanes, low-hanging branches, gates, or bridge weight limits can restrict tri-axle trucks (roughly 28-30 ft long and carrying 10-14 tons). If a truck cannot reach your drop spot, drivers can typically dump on the nearest accessible point, but you should note any access issues in your order and confirm alternate drop locations with Hello Gravel. We recommend photos and clear delivery instructions so the supplier can choose the right truck or plan a safe drop-off.
